French cleat chisel holder

unique Idea ,well done

I like this rack ,ALOT.The woods go well together.I have never heard of sliding dovetail birdseye maple though.Did you do an oil finish on it?

Interest solution-nice project.

very well done.

Nice, you took it vertical. Fine looking storage sir.

I like the rack quite a bit. The slots for each chisel are great, and the magnet idea is clever. How do these chisels compare to the two cherries in the first two pictures?

@bhog - I went a little crazy with the finish. I used a wood conditioner
from Benjamin Moore and let it set overnight. Then used a mixture of Minwax
English Chestnut 233 and Jel'd Stain Salem Maple.
I practiced on some scrap until I got the result that complimented the
walnut. That was applied and let it set overnight.
Minwax Polycrylic was the top coat.

@Bobasaurus - I really can't tell the difference between the two. I abused the 26mm
Two Cherries chisel and was stunned that the edge retained it's sharpness after wailing on 4
morticies in a douglas fir 4×6 block. When it seemed to not slick as well I'd strop it and was back
wailing on it. LOL, same with the Lee Valley chisels. I like both sets.

Thanks to all, I appreciate your comments.

A gr8 use of cutoffs. Nice design. I like how the magnet holds each one in place.
